Unless you insist on picking the berries yourself, this dessert is so simple we’re not even sure it’s a recipe. But we don’t care – because it is delicious.

Here at Honest Cooking we love recipes that are so simple they almost don’t even qualify as recipes. Just a few good ingredients that complement eachother perfectly without the need for more than just a few minutes of work. This one certainly qualifies.
In fact, it’s of the simplest and most delicious desserts I know. A fresh berry salad served with beautiful honey, a refreshing vanilla yoghurt and some chopped almonds. Unless you insist on picking the berries yourself somewhere in a dark forest, this dessert will be done in under 5 minutes from scratch.
And that, friends, is Honest Cooking!

Mmm…Sounds simply delicious!
Fresh berries is my favorite part of spring/summer. They look gorgeous.
Stunning photo – i love the simplicity of this dessert. Time to eat all the berries we can before summer gives way to fall.
